Just speaking for myself, I tend to go to the older videos for the fun techniques. I am more interested in using the products I have and picking a few new ones, then just buying everything new! So showing process videos is great for me!
Love love love these three techniques. I really liked the way you fuzzy cut your flowers on the first card... great way. 👍 Thanks for all the creativity Maymay!!!🥰🥰🥰
Speaking of scraps!!! I keep so many scraps I finally made a box of scraps for my grandkids!!!! They love to cut and glue and that way everything is very handy!!! They love it!!!
These cards are great! I love this kind of stuff. Using what you've got on hand. If I was a new crafter, I would be thrilled to have you teaching me to do all sorts of techniques without having to buy a bunch of equipment. Please keep doing these videos, Maymay! Of course I don't care what you do! I enjoy seeing everything that you post. Thanks for sharing!
Oh I love these ideas! Thank you so much for sharing. I am just getting back into crafting after my Mom died 2 1/2 years ago. I have really missed it. I am praying for your hurting heart MayMay❣️ ~Laurie
I absolutely LOVE these kinds of videos! These are exactly what beginner crafters need in order to learn the basics. I don’t believe there are magazines or crafting books out there that still teach these techniques because there is simply a tool for everything these days. And since you are the best teacher ever, I beg of you to PLEASE consider creating a series on this topic (and perhaps a separate playlist) where beginners can come to learn or even an experienced crafter can come to find out how to improvise if they don’t have a certain tool in their arsenal but want to achieve a specific look. I firmly believe these techniques are what inspired many tools to be made in the first place. So with just a few staples, practically anyone at any level can make professional looking crafts without having to afford or worry about storing all the latest greatest tools. I seriously can’t think of a better person to create this series, and it can just be a forever running ever evolving series that is updated and added to as fashion trends evolve and change over time. I’d give this video 10 likes if I could and would love to see more of them from you. 😊 👍🏻👍🏻⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I love the leather look card! So simple but so effective. Even stamping your flower & leaves onto coloured card so you don’t have to colour in - genius 😊
Beautiful, loved the video, and loved the card making, so fun, please do more!!!!!! I use to own a cake shop, wanted to get involved in stamping on my days off, what was I thinking, I never got to go to the meetings. Never had time, but I'm retired now, so now its Cricut time, Embroidery machining, and now, looks like I'm gonna be learning some card making, thank you!!!!
You brought back memories! Wrinkle distress was one of my first techniques I learned. I put it almost everything. Pop in pastels wad the very first technique. I loved the cross hatch with the scoreboard. Tea?my, all three are lovely. I do appreciate that you turn it into a card. I have a box of backgrounds, and ???? So glad you show real examples. Been praying. Will continue. You stubbies love you. Did you know that you spark joy in this old crafty heart? 😍😊
Love that smooth “leather” belt wrapped behind the flowers! YES! Please do more of these videos. I have gone back through your older videos to get ideas. You and your family are still in my prayers. ✝️🙏
Hello and I cannot believe how your video on how to look like embossing has saved me. Yep I am just starting in journaling and brother the expense. Not having to invest in an embossing machine right now on top of everything I have already purchased is a blessing. Thank you so very much for your kindness. I also have to complement you on your creative ideas and wonderful videos. Another Thank you.
Several years ago I made a great yard sale haul. It was horribly hot that day so I kind of just scooped stuff up paid the lady and got back to my AC. One of my new treasures was an embossing board. It woks kind of like what you are doing there with your score board, but and this is the cool part, is that it came with patterns to put down and using your embossing tool go around the pattern. But I have found that if I print out some words I can just lay them down and poke at them to have a sentiment embossed on your card.
Thank you for this video. So many people on utube make you feel that you always need something newer,better so I really appreciate this video. I especially like the idea of using the scraps with a punch. I have tons of scraps that I keep even though I'm not using them.
Sometimes I just use scrap strips spaced a tiny bit like Maymay did with the hexagons to fill a background. Solid colors, prints, sometimes just neutrals, mixed or monochromatic, makes an interesting background for a lot of different moods of cards. And, it uses up scraps.☺️
After your second swipe with the ink pad, and you moved the paper to illustrate the " sheen", I thought another idea--it might be a cool effect to emboss at that point to really bring out the appearance of marbling.
These were very good suggestions, I would definitely love to see more of your ideas. Sometimes, I just don't want to start taking out machines and dies, and want to go with what's left over and handy. Thank you.
Your adorable! I just found this channel and just liked the video and subscribed, I don't make cards but could use this in junk journal making, that I discovered about a year ago, your so fun to watch and I'm learning so much, Thank you for sharing!!
You making tapa Hawaiian cloth by crinkle is the paper 😊 very nice 👍. This is really neat with my score board like cross hatch nice card 😊. This is nice 😊 this teaching. TFS
I have done the wrinkling technique with dampened orange card stock. Then I flatten it and run red, green, and brown ink pads over it and let it dry. Then die cut fall leaves. They are gorgeous.
This was a wonderful video. I am new to making cards and don't have all the supplies, so this was a really cool way to show how I can upgrade my card making skills without all supplies! Please make more of these videos!
GAME CHANGER! I have a Spellbinder machine but am just starting to collect stamps and embossing folders. This is awesome, even if you don’t have time to pull out your machine and find the correct folder! Thank you!
❤wow I love this - great ideas of just having fun and exploring different techniques of creating cards - love to see more videos to learn ways of having fun with one’s creative ❤❤
Love the leather look. I think I'm going 2 use that technique as the background on our community bulletin board. Thank u 4 the inspiration. Happy crafting.
Nice cards great ideas the full leather-look would also be nice done in a denim blue so it would look like wrinkled or old jeans would make a great country card
Girlfriend, these old techniques are what got me excited about paper 15 years ago. ❤️❤️❤️
This is perhaps my favorite how to video. This is me. This is my kind of art.
I love the crinkle paper textures.
Oh COURSE we want to see what is “floating around” in your head! LOL! ANY Maymay video is a joy!
Please keep these oldies but goodies coming. Wonderful to have these ideas and techniques brought back to life! Thank you so much!
God bless all of you Crafters who are generous with your stamps. Blessings 🙏

My heart stopped when you crinkled that first piece!! Love it!!
The first one reminds me of the tree trunk swirls that you see after it is cut. And the band looks like leather. I like it..very rustic.
Oh I love these ideas! Thank you so much for sharing.
I am just getting back into crafting after my Mom died 2 1/2 years ago. I have really missed it. I am praying for your hurting heart MayMay❣️

Share all you have going in that head! LOL! Another great video! Thank you!
Great ideas. Never thought an embossing board could provide so much interest. Love the scrunched up leather look.Thank you.

I love the bee card! Would love to see more videos like this, 'use-what-you-got'
Loved this video. It is a great one to share with new crafters without the thousands of dollars of dies, stamps, paper, machines, embellishments, etc.

Love your wrinkling technique especially for those of us who don't have an embossing tool. Thank you,
Would love more videos like this. ❤
Love these techniques! I am teaching some friends how to make cards that do not require expensive supplies. This is perfect for that!
Several years ago I made a great yard sale haul. It was horribly hot that day so I kind of just scooped stuff up paid the lady and got back to my AC. One of my new treasures was an embossing board.

Good idea!
Oh may Maymay I just love the first one that is so pretty
Lovely great ideas. And you are so right alot of people can't afford embossing machines and folders or die cuts. ❤
Although these may not be new techniques, it helps to be reminded of them. Thanks for sharing!
May May absolutely gorgeous techniques and cards I can't wait to give these a try. Thank you for sharing.
I love these techniques very very cute thanks for sharing

First time watching you. Love the cards. So nice to have options when you don't have all the fancy materials.. thanks!
After your second swipe with the ink pad, and you moved the paper to illustrate the " sheen", I thought another idea--it might be a cool effect to emboss at that point to really bring out the appearance of marbling.
Well done! Super cute ideas! Stay blessed!

I crinkle the paper, cover it with versamark, then clear emboss it. You taught me that almost 5 years ago!😁
I love these videos. I don't have fancy supplies so this gives me ideas until I am able to obtain the latest gadgets
